You got a point there, some tactical features like attacking and defending with battle formations would bring a bit of strategic & fun element to the game rather than just mathematics. 

By formations I mean that attackers would be able to set attacking formations and defenders defending formations. And these formations would bring about boost and reduction to their respective armies when the battle happens.

For example, the attacker choose a formation called cavalry charge and defenders had kept his city defending units at phalanx formation. Then the battle would give a boost to defending team and a reduction to attacking team.


This topic was raised before, I hope they are still in development

Yes, that would be amazing. However, I doubt it is that epic. (I hope so though.) I would imagine plarium is working on the server/portal issues most of the time. Therefore, probably this unit does something (if it does) that is relatively simply.

These units behave like any other Phalanx Unit would, so I am afraid no special bonuses for formations and the like (though they do count to the Champion's bonus). And they will definitely be added as Tournament rewards as well.

At least we got something new for a chance, instead of bug fixes, so that is great.


Thanks.

Found them!


I found them in the market place under the Scorpio and Fire Catapult.  Really not impressed with the artwork, but hey...I'm comparing these to the Promacho or Evocatus. 

I don't see them in any tournaments now, but they probably will show up every other month or so..like sketches...lol:))



Have A Great Holiday Season

No agreement levels?

Don't see what power or ability they will have other than these might end up as "pay for each unit" as Scythian's are.


Don't know. Just an opinion.

With respect, but I really hope you are incorrect on your statement. 

While no one has stated with any certainty that these new phalanx troops will be available to all-it appears that they will be relegated to winning them on tournaments first. 


My hope is that they will available to all-whether in tournaments or, as Scythian's-a pay for unit-in which case on a personal note I will not purchase. My reasoning is that since they are a new troop, and there are no agreements to sign-the only possible outcome to get these new troops is to 

1.) win them

2.) pay for them

Mick

I think it is a bit unrealistic that the Paeonian is so big, and eat so little grain. 

Or maybe he is on a diet? 

Hehe ...

Hey, everyone. Just to re-iterate and confirm, these are not VIP-exclusive units. For the time being there will be two ways of obtaining them:


1) Buying them as part of special offers;

2) Getting them as a Tournament reward;


To the best of my knowledge, they will not have any separate Agreements to go with them, that will only happen if they are added to the list of Units that you can recruit. To make up for that they have very impressive stats, as you can see. For all intents and purposes, they will follow the mechanics of core Phalanx Units.

And you might be right about the Paeonian, I'll ask the devs to raise his grain consumption to a 100 per hour

dimitri, can you ask devs to put them on offers or tournament so we can see they are real? ;) I am afraid we had so many bad experiences telling us something new was coming and then it was only for the fb server that i guess till we see one in akro most of us are sceptical lol, in stats they look quite impressive :)

I can confirm that these Units will not be a Facebook exclusive for certain! They will become available on both Plarium and Facebook servers at the same time. I believe "soon" is the best estimate I can give right now, not entirely certain about an exact date as that may be subject to change

This Units make the Game More Unbalance.

The Players who can buy them from the Market are the Players who Benefit from Them most.

If the CC Players can buy them at large quatities they will buy them because of their high Battle statistics they have.

People can't buy them from the market, only from Special offers and tournaments, which means yes, people who buy them from the special offers has an advantage, but still everyone may be able to get them from the tournaments. And because they are hard to get and can't be upgraded I have no prpblems with their stats.
